Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 22, 2022) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CSE: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods ("CPG") company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, today issued a Letter to Shareholders from its Interim CEO and Chairman of SLANG, Drew McManigle. Dear Shareholders, Since I was seated as Interim Executive Officer on November 15, 2021, the Company's management team, working closely with its financial advisor, MACCO Restructuring Group, LLC, has undertaken many forward-looking and effective initiatives. These initiatives have been aimed at improving our operational and financial efficiencies while right-sizing the Company to advance a more defined growth strategy. I am pleased to report today, that within four (4) months, these rigorous initiatives have reduced our operating expenses by approximately USD $2.1 million and strengthened our position to advance both our near and long-term growth plans. We are already seeing positive impacts in our monthly budget to actual cash flow. We have also completed and approved a 2022 annual budget for the Company. Before I dive into the details, I want our shareholders to know that all of our collective efforts have been to ensure that the Company can capitalize on future opportunities in the cannabis industry to drive shareholder value. And, importantly, I am personally optimistic about the Company's future direction now that we are strategically advancing upon our refined growth strategy. Listed below are several key accomplishments we have recently made in streamlining our operations to build stronger, sustainable revenue growth and profitable operations. Completed management restructuringBeginning in November 2021, we undertook a rapid and comprehensive review of all aspects of the Company, including, operations; finance; controls and procedures; markets; logistics; sales, marketing, products, and brands; and consumer satisfaction. We also undertook a review of the organizational structure and effectiveness of the Company's management team. We did all of this and more to reduce unmanageable overhead and conserve liquidity while working to drive growth in SLANG's core operating markets. In effect, we have strengthened the Company's position as a specialty focused, nimble and pragmatic organization. Implemented transformational strategic growth plan to focus on Vermont and ColoradoUnder our newly streamlined, strengthened and cohesive management team, we began to focus our efforts on growth in platform regions and emerging markets that display the strongest demand for our cannabis brands which, would in turn offer the opportunity to lead to greater sustainable and profitable revenue streams. In late November 2021, we began executing upon our strategy for transformational growth by tapering our operations to Vermont and Colorado (our Core Markets), while essentially eliminating any unprofitable components, including our Oregon operations. ColoradoWe continue to streamline operations, develop new products and branding, investigate opportunities for effective manufacturing out-sourcing and enhanced logistics, while consolidating our supply chain to create synergies and operating efficiencies to further strengthen our bottom-line. We have successfully reduced overseas freight costs. Most notably, we have sourced and contracted for distillate in Colorado at a significant reduction from the Company's prior year average cost of distillate, which can strongly enhance both revenue and margins. Additionally, we assessed and are exploring opportunities to divest several licenses in the State, as well as, our costly cultivation facility. VermontIn August 2021, the Company acquired High Fidelity/Ceres, Vermont's largest medical cannabis company, and Vermont quickly became a key facet of our Core Market strategy. With this acquisition, the Company has two of the five medical cannabis licenses granted in Vermont with four dispensaries, including one that is strategically located in the Burlington area, with the ability to add two new retail dispensaries upon receipt of the requisite licenses. In addition, with the advent of recreational cannabis use in Vermont later this year, the potential for material revenue growth, at healthy margins, can occur while we work to further increase overall enterprise value for SLANG.Concurrently, in November 2021, with our management review of the Company, we conducted a similar comprehensive review of High Fidelity's/Ceres' management, operations, and finance, as we began the integration of these assets into SLANG. New Jersey OpportunityFinally, in connection with a pre-existing agreement between High Fidelity and Woah Flow, Inc., who was provisionally awarded a medical cannabis license for Trenton, New Jersey in December 2021, the Company now possesses the rights to capitalize on a new business with potentially significant revenue opportunities. Completed share consolidationIn February 2022, we sought and gained shareholder approval, for a consolidation of our outstanding common shares (the "Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) share for every six (6) shares (the "Consolidation") to further support our efforts to improve shareholder value. The Consolidation was completed on February 28, 2022 and resulted in a total of approximately 70,409,448 Common Shares and 23,555,755 restricted voting shares being issued and outstanding. The Consolidation gives the enterprise a more manageable number of shares outstanding, while allowing for adequate daily trading volume. Deepened strategic partnership with Trulieve driving entry into new marketsAs previously disclosed, Trulieve Cannabis Corp. ("Trulieve"), in combination with two existing shareholders, Seventh Avenue and Pura Vida, entered a term-loan financing of $17.3 million USD in November 2021 supporting the Company's near and long-term transformation initiatives, as they related to the newly implemented strategic growth plan.In addition, the Company has partnered with Trulieve for entry into new and emerging markets such as Maryland, West Virginia, and other States. Conclusion In a very short amount of time, SLANG's management, and employees, working collaboratively, have formed a distinct focus on the Company's future success. We have made meaningful and significant progress transforming SLANG as we aim to capitalize on both current and future opportunities to generate stronger revenue growth, positive cash flow and profitability. We all would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support as we continue to position SLANG Worldwide as a leading CPG player in the cannabis industry. I look forward to speaking with you on our next earnings conference call in April.

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 24, 2021) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CNSX: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, today released financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. All figures in this press release are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. Third Quarter Highlights and Subsequent Events: Revenue for Q3 2021 was $10.1 million, compared with $7.9 million in Q3 2020. Upon the completion of the acquisition of High-Fidelity, Inc. ("Hi-Fi") in August 2021, the Company realized approximately $1.1 million in revenue during the third quarter of 2021; SLANG's brands continued to earn market-leading positions in its Core Markets of Colorado and Vermont in the third quarter of 2021. Highlights include: O.pen ranked as the #1 vape cartridge in Colorado; Firefly Mini was the #6 and O.pen was the #5 disposable vaporizer in Colorado; Bakked was the #6 dabbable distillate in Colorado; District Edibles was the #12 gummy in Colorado; Pressies was the #6 pill in Colorado (Source: BDSA.) Cash and cash equivalents of $3.5 million as of September 30, 2021 as compared to $9.7 million at June 30, 2021. September cash balance is inclusive of $5.0 million of transaction costs paid at closing of the HiFi acquisition; In October, SLANG announced it will enter the new markets of West Virginia and Pennsylvania through its strategic partnership with Trulieve Cannabis Corp. ("Trulieve"); In November, Trulieve, Pura Vida Investments ("Pura Vida") and Seventh Avenue Investments ("Seventh Avenue") and certain other investors provided a term-loan financing for aggregate gross proceeds of $17.3 million USD; In November, Drew McManigle was appointed Interim CEO and Chairman of the Board as part of an executive management transition to strategically reposition SLANG for profitable revenue growth. Drew McManigle, Interim CEO and Chairman of SLANG, said, "With the significant support from our respected strategic and investor partners, I look forward to utilizing my extensive experience in repositioning corporate operations to assist in the transformation of the SLANG operating platform. This transformation will be based on a refined strategy to appropriately position the Company to achieve future sustainable revenue growth." Mr. McManigle continued, "During the third quarter, SLANG deepened its strategic partnership with Trulieve, expanding product availability into new markets exclusively through Trulieve retail locations, and further securing opportunities for additional revenue over the long-term. In the short time I've been appointed to manage the strategic transition and transformation of SLANG, we've made substantial progress in evaluating the go-forward structure, effectively executing prudent measures beginning with consolidating core market operations and refining our product mix. We are confident in our rightsizing agenda to create a future path to profitability, and ultimately deliver attractive returns to our shareholders." Operational Highlights and Growth Drivers: Subsequent to quarter end, SLANG completed a term-loan financing (the "Loan Transaction") agreement with its strategic partner Trulieve, a leading and top-performing cannabis company based in the United States, two existing significant shareholders of the Company, Seventh Avenue and Pura Vida , and certain other investors for aggregate gross proceeds of $17.3 million USD. Under the terms and conditions of the Loan Transaction, the Company is required to allocate a minimum of 50% of the aggregate proceeds to complete the development and integration of the Vermont operations, a Core Market in SLANG's transformational strategic growth plan, ensuring the revamped operational capabilities result in future profitable growth. Further to building out the Vermont operations, the Company will shift its focus to efficiently refining the product mix according to the state's most popular consumer preferences, as well as creating significant efficiencies across the financial and operational cycle. As part of the financing support provided by the Company's well-respected partners, the Board of Directors appointed Drew McManigle as Interim CEO and Chairman of the Board, to lead the reorganization strategy and transformation of SLANG. The Loan Transaction represents a firm vote of confidence from each of these esteemed partners in the ability of the new leadership team to lead SLANG through successful execution and further development of its re-designed transformational growth strategy. This strategy will be structured to achieve the primary long-term objective to generate profitable revenue growth and create value for all of its stakeholders. The shift in SLANG's Core Markets strategy will represent a significant component of SLANG's transformational strategic growth plan. Under the newly appointed leadership a redirection in the Company's focus on regions within the current platform that display strong consumer demand for the profitable cannabis brands in the Company's product portfolio. As a result, the Company has determined its Core Markets going forward will be tapered to Colorado and Vermont, where a properly executed growth strategy has the potential to produce a sustainable and profitable revenue stream. The ongoing consolidation process of the supply chain in the Core Market of Colorado, where the Company currently recognizes wholesale revenue from sales of its leading brands directly from retail channels, will create synergies and operating efficiencies to contribute to go-forward revenue recognition. As part of this process, SLANG will work toward further consolidating its manufacturing and distribution segments, and divesting several licenses in the state, as well as its cultivation facility. Relative to the Core Market of Vermont, the Hi-Fi acquisition, in conjunction with the significant Loan Transaction led by industry leading strategic partners and noteworthy shareholders, represents a catalyst for considerable growth opportunities as the Company continues its effort to capitalize on an integrated SLANG platform while strictly pursuing highly profitable lines of revenue. In conjunction with the Core Markets adjustment, the Company has made a strategic pivot and will reduce its largely unprofitable Oregon operations. The Company plans to wind down manufacturing operations of all SLANG branded THC products from the newly re-positioned Emerging Market of Oregon, yet maintains its presence in the state through the commercialization of its popular CBD Gummies, while searching for a strategic partner to license its THC products in this market. Similarly to the adjustments made to our Core Markets strategy, in order to generate future significant revenue growth, SLANG will review its current footprint of Emerging Markets and only pursue geographies that are expected to provide meaningful and profitable lines of revenue. SLANG's new leadership team will carefully evaluate cannabis market data, consumer demand and unit economics in alternative geographies and take an opportunistic approach to those with attractive performance, in order to realize maximum long-term profitability. In assessing potential entry into new markets, the Company will focus on new and existing strategic partnerships for an asset-light approach producing greater operating efficiency. A critical factor in SLANG's Emerging Markets adjustment strategy is the notable strategic partnership with Trulieve, which continues to provide the Company with significant growth opportunities in several markets. In addition to SLANG's product and brands available in all Trulieve retail location in the state of Florida during the third quarter of 2021, the Company has announced its expansion to include Trulieve retail locations in Massachusetts in July 2021, as well as additional entrances to the Pennsylvania and West Virginia markets in Q2 2022 and Q3 2022, respectively. Another element in the strategic transformation of the Company includes the new management team's proven methods to realize profitability. As part of this methodology, management will re-evaluate SLANG's product mix and retain the solid products in leading brands which generate the greatest unit economics. During the re-evaluation process, the Company will undergo an in-depth assessment of the full revenue lifecycle of the current brand and product portfolio, including packaging, raw product costs, distribution and marketing spend. The resulting data will enable the Company to identify opportunities for efficiency in order to streamline or rebuild our product portfolio. The Company's goal remains to ultimately generate profitable revenue dollars and products that generate minimal economics to the Company will be removed. Key Performance Indicators1 The Company showed meaningful growth with 896,694 Branded Units sold in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of 50% compared to 597,397 Branded Units sold in Q3 2020; and 70.4 million Branded Servings were sold in Q3 2021, an increase of 23% compared to 57.6 million Branded Servings sold in Q3 2020. Q3 2021 Branded Units and Servings included notable sales from the Emerging Market of California, marking the Company's re-entry into the state through its Strategic Partner, Natura. Branded Units and Branded Servings related to the Core Market of Vermont and the Hi-Fi acquisition are also included in the figures reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. Brand Leadership SLANG's brands continued to earn market-leading positions in its Core Markets in the third quarter of 2021. Highlights include: O.pen ranked as the #1 vape cartridge in Colorado and #14 in Oregon; Firefly Mini was the #6 and O.pen was the #5 disposable vaporizer in Colorado; Bakked was the #6 dabbable distillate in Colorado; District Edibles was the #12 gummy in Colorado; and Lunchbox Alchemy was the #14 gummy in Oregon; Pressies was the #6 pill in Colorado (Source: BDSA.) During Q3 2021, SLANG's Gross Merchandise Value(1) ("GMV"), representing the total retail dollar value of SLANG branded products sold through all existing SLANG sales channels, whether directly by SLANG or by one of SLANG's strategic partners, totaled $39,014,679. SLANG's Q3 product and licensing revenue of $10,073,442, as reported in its Q3 2021 financial statements, represents 25.8% of GMV. GMV is calculated by multiplying SLANG's number of branded products sold in a period by the MSRP of those products sold. Furthermore, the total percentage of GMV captured by SLANG is an important metric in assessing brand performance as it determines SLANG's proportion of total retail revenue captured. The Company will continue to focus on GMV going forward and initiatives that will help increase SLANG's percentage of GMV. Management expects the acquisition of HI-FI and a continued focus on ecommerce channels will have a meaningful impact on SLANG's percentage of GMV in the remainder of 2021 and in 2022. HI-FI's four retail locations in Vermont and direct to consumer sales via ecommerce will allow SLANG to recognize 100% of GMV on products sold via those channels.

Non-IFRS Measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Gross Merchandise Value, Branded Unit volume and Branded Servings volume are non-IFRS financial measures that the Company uses to assess its operating performance. EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) before net finance costs, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization expense. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for other non-cash items such as the impact of unrealized fair values, share based compensation expense, impairments, one-time gains and losses, and one-time revenues and expenses. Management defines Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin as gross profit and gross margin adjusted for inventory fair value adjustments and fair value changes of biological assets. Gross Merchandise Value is defined as the total retail dollar value of SLANG branded products sold through all existing SLANG sales channels, whether directly by SLANG or by one of SLANG's strategic partners. See the heading "Key Performance Indicators" in the Company's management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (the "Q3 2021 MD&A") for a description of how each of Branded Unit volume and Branded Servings volume is calculated. This data is furnished to provide additional information and are non-IFRS measures and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company uses these non-IFRS measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. As other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company, these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We caution readers that Adjusted EBITDA should not be substituted for determining net loss as an indicator of operating results, or as a substitute for cash flows from operating and investing activities. 3 months ended30-Sep-21 3 months ended30-Sep-20 (In thousands except per share data and percentages) CDN CDN Total Comprehensive Income (Loss) ($5,693) ($5,947) EBITDA (5,859) (4,111) Adjusted EBITDA (1,974) 57   See the Q3 2021 MD&A for a detailed reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Operating Income / (Loss).

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 16, 2021) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CNSX: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, today announced a term-loan financing (the "Loan Transaction") with Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (CSE: TRUL) (OTCQX: TCNNF) ("Trulieve"), a leading and top-performing cannabis company based in the United States, and two existing significant shareholders of the Company, Pura Vida Investments ("Pura Vida") and Seventh Avenue Investments ("Seventh Avenue"), for aggregate proceeds of $17.3 million USD. At least 50% of the loan proceeds will be allocated to the development of operations in Vermont to achieve long-term profitability and further execute strategic growth objectives. In addition, the Company's board of directors (the "Board") has appointed Drew McManigle as interim Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, effective November 15th. Mr. McManigle succeeds Chris Driessen as Chief Executive Officer, upon his departure from the Company. Mr. McManigle also succeeds Peter Miller as Chairman of the Board and Mr. Miller remains a director of the Company. Drew McManigle's appointment as interim CEO and Chairman provides SLANG with proven leadership with experience across a variety of industries to strengthen SLANG's position as a specialty focused, nimble, pragmatic organization. This leadership transition, integrated with the overall strategic transformation, positions the Company to successfully capitalize and build upon its platforms in Colorado and Vermont to drive profitable growth, while taking a carefully crafted and prudent approach to evaluating and capturing additional future growth opportunities. "Our investment in SLANG underscores the success of our strategic partnership, as well as our commitment to providing the trusted and reliable brands our customers rely on," said Kim Rivers, CEO of Trulieve. "Since beginning our exclusive partnership in Florida, we have been able to bring SLANG to additional markets, expanded into wholesale, and now look forward to continued growth at scale and mutual success as we strive to provide our customers with the highest-quality products and unparalleled experience they can expect at Trulieve." "I'm excited about the opportunity to lead SLANG and further develop its established operating platform in the cannabis industry. My focus is on assuring SLANG is both operating efficiently and profitably capitalizing on new growth opportunities" said interim CEO and Chairman Drew McManigle. "Our top priority is the evolution of SLANG and its strategic positioning. The concurrent financing round represents a vote of confidence from a leading industry partner, Trulieve, and two of our largest shareholders, Pura Vida and Seventh Avenue." Mr. McManigle is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MACCO Restructuring Group, LLC ("MACCO"). He brings both wide-ranging experience, derived from a variety of industries, as well as a solutions-driven leadership style that has led to successful outcomes in numerous complex situations. As interim CEO and Chairman, Mr. McManigle will have oversight over key strategic, operational and financial functions. In addition to existing SLANG management, Mr. McManigle will also have the added support of members of MACCO who will provide senior level operating and financial expertise to enable rapid strategic reviews and business plan implementation. While at MACCO, Drew has held several leadership and fiduciary roles, including interim CEO and CRO. He has also served as an independent director. Prior to MACCO, Mr. McManigle was a principal of his own firm for 22 years. He had previously been employed by a Fortune 500 healthcare services company and had established the Houston office for a California-based advisory firm. He attended Texas Tech University and received his bachelor's degree from the University of Houston. The Company further announces that it has accepted the resignation of each of Chris Donnelly, Chris Driessen, Kelly Ehler, Keith Stein and Robert Verdun from the Board, effective immediately. The Company acknowledges each of the departing members of the Board for their support and contributions to the Company. To support the leadership transition, the Company has entered into an agreement with Mr. Driessen to provide transitional services to the Company in exchange for certain cash payments and the issuance of 600,480 Common Shares on the date hereof, as well as future share-based payments. Under the terms and conditions of the Loan Transaction, Trulieve, Pura Vida, Seventh Avenue, and other investors (collectively, the "Lenders") will provide SLANG a loan of $17.3 million USD (the "Initial Loan Amount"), which is subject to an original issue discount of 3% and will have a three-year term and a PIK interest rate of 9.75%, compounded quarterly, with the entire outstanding balance, including interest, becoming due and payable on third anniversary of the Loan Transaction (the "Maturity Date"). Additionally, SLANG will pay the Lenders an aggregate total amount equal to $3.6 million USD (together with the Initial Loan Amount, the "Loan Amount") on the earlier of: (i) the Maturity Date; and (ii) any date of prepayment of the Initial Loan Amount. In addition, the Company has granted the Lenders an option to, at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, convert any portion of the Loan Amount, including the earned interest thereon, into common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price per Common Share equal to $0.1273 USD. The Loan Amount is secured by a first secured ranking on the assets of SLANG, guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of SLANG's subsidiaries. The proceeds of the Loan Transaction will be used for both working capital and to fund the development of SLANG's Vermont operations. In addition, the Company has decided to reduce its Oregon operations and will consolidate production to its Colorado facility. Therefore, in the near term, the Company is pivoting its strategic agenda and focusing on its core markets of Colorado and Vermont. Mr. McManigle will lead the Company to success by leveraging SLANG's core platform to drive near term profitability and tactfully guide the Company's long-term strategy in connection with his appointment.

Related Party Transaction Disclosure The participation of Seventh Avenue and Pura Vida in the Loan Transaction constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the Loan Transaction as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Loan Transaction, insofar as it involved the related parties (being Seventh Avenue and Pura Vida), exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101). Further details will be included in a material change report to be filed by the Company. The material change report will not be filed more than 21 days prior to closing of the Loan Transaction due to the timing of the announcement of the Loan Transaction and the anticipated closing thereof occurring in less than 21 days.
